??? Reader Feedback: I learned more about kerosene pressure lanterns in 30 minutes with this book than anyone ever told me and more than Id learned in hours of watching YouTube . . . I highly recommend this book and the other books in the series. totallyfrozen? Kerosene Pressure Lanterns is Book 6 of our NonElectric Lighting Series. Lanterns that use mantles produce light on par with electric lights. And KEROSENE mantle lanterns have an advantage over Colemanfuel lamps in that kerosene is more generic, more widely available.? The book has four main sections (1) It describes six different Coleman models, old and new, made specifically for kerosene. Collector items (expensive) and orphans (no spare parts) are ignored. The emphasis is on practical, daytoday lighting.(2) It gives the specifics on converting nine different Coleman gas lanterns to kerosene (what generator to use, etc.).(3) It explains Petromax lanterns, a preWorld War II German design. Today, worldwide, there are actually more Petromax lanterns (and Petromax clones) in existence than Coleman.(4) And it explains Aladdin lamps, kerosene lamps that use a mantle but are not pressurized. Aladdins are over a hundred years old and a new model was recently introduced the first new model in 50 years!? Kerosene Pressure Lanterns contains 25,000 words, 168 B7W illustrations, and is 155 pages long. Its available in Kindle eBook format as well as paper.? AND oh yes! this book identifies eleven different lantern models that, given the right generatormantle combo, will operate on diesel fuel. That alone is worth the price of admission!? If you picture yourself being forced to live offgrid for an extended period of time, then THIS is the book you need. You dont have to cook supper or fix the car or deliver a baby by the light of a candle. You can have light equivalent to a 50 or 100 or 200 or 300watt electric bulb. Pressurized kerosene lanterns come from another day and age but are known, established, reliable technology. This book is not artsyfartsy. Its nittygritty.???
